The first 35 hours I couldn't sleep.
I was wired.
I started with a very soar throat in the morning.
Brushed it off and got some cough drops.
That night I was blowing my nose and one nostril was plugging up.
I could feel the virus moving into my bronchial tubes and chest.
Felt that same exact process before many times.
I was getting sticky yellow phlegm and a good amount.
I new something was wrong.
Finally fell asleep but I could feel the sweats and slight fever starting.
Never took any medicine and refused to get tested or go to the doctors.
I had about 48 hours of foggy brain or inability to concentrate or desire to concentrate.
Just ride the wave.
Not my first rodeo as I've had many chest colds much worse than this over the years and had many cases of the flu as well.
This seemed like nothing.
Day's 2, 3 and 4 I was out like a light.
Literally slept 70 out of the next 72 hours.
Day 5 I finally broke down and started to take some Tylenol, Nyquil and a bunch of vitamins.
I was feeling better so no need to see a doctor IMO.
I isolated in one of the rooms, in the house and went into quarantine.
I had the wife make me hot tea with honey/lemon and homemade chicken soup for the week.
After day 6 it was clear that it was basically over.
After day 8 I'm out of quarantine and back to normal and unmasked.
Nobody else in my house caught it.
I suppose it could of just been the common cold or regular flu but I doubt it.
Anyways, that's my story... don't bother me.
Stupid Sniffles for about 96% of people.
I think about 4% will need hospitalization.
I'm untested and unvaccinated by the way.
Now TP knows why I've been watching so many movies this last week!
One really good thing is that I tested out some of my camping equipment like my bag, bedroll and cot.
So that was nice.
